Jimmy "the Weisel" Frattiano claimed that Giancana (the then Boss of Bosses out of Chicago) gave the go ahead for Marcello (of New Orleans) to carry out the assassination. It involved Castro (who had a grudge after finding out the CIA was behind the Bay of Pigs Invastion) so he got a patsy (Oswald) from the Russians to carry-out the deed. Marcello's beef was a result of RFK's investigations into organized crime. To cover the link to the Mafia, Marcello had Jack Ruby (a two bit night club owner in the Marcello organization) take out Oswald to seal his lips.
Giancana's beef with JFK was his impression that JFK renigged on promises to leave the Mafia alone since he felt he pulled strings in Chicago to get him elected.
Several weeks before the assassination, Oswald met with Cuban agents in Mexico. For inexplicable reasons, the FBI agents who were following up the Cuban connection as a part of the Warren Commission investigation, were recalled

John Kennedy was killed by Lee Harvey Oswald. There was no conspiracy. Oswald was a mentally ill malcontent, a supporter of the Marxist-Castro regime in Cuba. His opposition to the Kennedy administration's policies towards Cuba was one of the underlying factors in his decision to murder the president.

his populartity and his nice guy attitude because it was his idea to take the bulletproof roof off the top of the car to be closer to the people. but have you ever seen the video of it it's morbidly funny to watch the secret service guy chase after the car with a chunk of his brain like they can just slap it back in there and he'll be fine.

Don't know, but the evidence doesn't support Oswald acting alone. There's too much contradictory evidence that we already have. Others were involved.

Don't have a clue, but I doubt it was poor old Oswald acting all alone.

it might have been the driver because he has such close contact with him. but nobody really knows except who did it.
